That's why I put "games" in quotation marks as VNs are not games most of the time.
As for RPG maker, that has a slew of issues that might arise if they aren't familiar with those issues, such as wasting time roaming a big empty map just to hunt for scenes, or doing what OneOne1 does where you only get to enjoy the "content" if you lose battles that are far too easy to win.
I certainly have high hopes just because of the artwork even though it lacks some of my favorite tags, but trends tend to be accurate, so I am not anticipating anything groundbreaking or good outside of the CGs.
